New S class will probably be out in fall 2005 at latest--I've even heard March 05--Pics look like a new Nissan Altima.

In my opinion S is starting to look dated--I'm a bit tired of seeing them--E60 looks like it will be more fun to drive-but MB does have its quality feel.

Needless to say I looked into the S and decided not to wait but to get a 545. It's just a car.

yes, and i was there the day (around april of this year) that all the dealers in the states received a fax from mbusa. and that's one of the reasons why i picked a e60 .

In my household, my father drive a S-class, my sister drive a E-class, my Fiance drives a C-class, and I of course proud to be a owner of a e60.

Ever since I first driven my E60, I hate to drive anything else in my home. I didn't mean Mercedes is not a good car, indeed, it's very classy and elegance. However, Mercedes is not a car built for driver's, we cannot communicate between my soul and the car...

So, IMO, if you are going to hire a driver, get the S-class. Or else, get the 5er.

The 545 fully loaded is much less money than an S-Class. if you don't need the additional legroom at the back then its hands down E60.
